Scattered Blooms - Liquid Sky Lacquer 24 Karat Rose, Maybelline Color Show Bouquet

Again with the layering!

Remember, everything is better with sparkle...

[Bottle to nail: Liquid Sky Lacquer 24 Karat Rose (2 coats)]

My base shade was my somewhat-thermal 24 Karat Rose from Liquid Sky Lacquer, a soft gold when warm shifting to a peachy pink (in my case!) when cold.

I have had this lovely polish from the Maybelline Color Show range for ages but could not find a nice base to go with. This is called Bouquet, and is a clear base with three different sizes of hex glitter in gold foil, white matte and pink matte. Such a lovely colour combination!

This is one coat of Bouquet over 24 Karat Rose - I think it goes together quite well! Perhaps I should've put a matte topcoat over the top, that would make for a really nice soft finish too. =)

Sheer Petal - Liquid Sky Lacquer 24 Karat Rose

Ah, here's a polish that I've had for ages but just could never get to work for me!

[Bottle to nail: Liquid Sky Lacquer 24 Karat Rose (2 coats)]

This is Liquid Sky Lacquer 24 Karat Rose, a sheer shimmer thermal polish which is meant to shift from gold when warm to a rose red shade when cold.

This was two coats, in the warm gold shade. As you can see, it is sheer enough that there is still a visible nail line. However, it's quite a nice soft shimmer finish. I think it would be quite nice for a subtle worksafe manicure.

Now I literally hung on to a bag of frozen peas for a few minutes, with the nail tips pressed up against the cold, but I just cannot get it to shift further than a soft peachy pink shade!

I've googled around and people are getting this amazingly bright rose red shade but I am coming nowhere close, oh dear... I guess I'll just have to manage with a soft blush rather than raging rose.. =p
